534 Come and Vote
Lin Xuan was looking at the demonic gods of the eastern barren in front of him, hesitating about how to deal with them. If he roasted them all and ate them, it would not be good for his stomach. If he made them into soup… Was that nourishing? Should he stir-fry it with some chili? After thinking about it, Lin Xuan still hadn’t decided how to deal with these beasts…
“The Human Emperor of the Xia Dynasty, The God of Darkness of the eastern barren requests an audience!”
While Lin Xuan was still hesitating, a crisp voice suddenly rang. Lin Xuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw the bunny-eared lady standing outside the palace. She was graceful and charming.
He looked down at the dazed eastern barren god and smiled.
“Let her in!”
At the order of the Human Emperor, several guards ran out in a hurry and invited the bunny-eared lady in.
“What business do you have here?”
Lin Xuan sat at the head of the table, his Emperor’s Might exuded out. His words were like heavenly laws, and the sound of thunder rumbled when he spoke. It was soul-stirring and terrifying, especially to the wild beasts and gods of the wild, which had an added special pressure.
God of Darkness naturally felt the pressure from him. It was more powerful and aggressive than the aura she had felt outside, and it had a stronger suppressing effect on the gods.
He can’t be defeated by force, he can’t be defeated by force… Hey, what’s this?
She had her head held high at first, but when she felt Lin Xuan’s Emperor’s Might, she could not help but lower her head, not daring to look at the Human Emperor who was sitting on the high seat.
This was the first time in hundreds of years that she had been so humble. She had to step down from the covenant of the gods and even the throne to become someone else’s subordinate. This sense of humiliation and imbalance in her mind was more difficult to accept than she had imagined.
Although she had her head down, her eyes were still open, and tears were welling up in her eyes. Suddenly, a familiar beast appeared in her sight. Isn’t that the eagle… The sudden discovery sent a chill down her spine. The fear in her heart suddenly exploded. It turned out that the mastermind behind the changes in the eastern barren was the Human Emperor!
Then wasn’t she walking right into a trap by coming here this time?
She felt uneasy, but she acted naturally and gracefully. Her eyes were clear and she did not look sideways. It was as if she did not see the items on the side at all.
Lin Xuan looked at the lady in front of him, amused. “Why are you here?”
The bunny-eared lady couldn’t help but glance at the ground, and her tone was a little aggrieved. “I’m here to surrender!”
Lin Xuan was speechless.
Lin Xuan rubbed his temples helplessly, and then said with a slightly troubled tone, “Are you representing yourself as a rabbit, or are you representing the gods of the eastern barren?”
The two were different, and Lin Xuan’s arrangements for her would be different based on the answer.
If she was only representing the moon, Lin Xuan would have it go back and act as a spy… Speaking of which, wasn’t it a little too much to make the leader of the other side defect?
If she was representing the gods of the eastern barren, then… She would be useless, and perhaps death would be her future… Ahem, that was too much. Lin Xuan was not that kind of person. After all, he had taken the initiative to join the enemy and set a good example. Furthermore, her strength was not bad. She was more than enough to be the second sacred beast to protect the country.
“It’s my own will.”
The God of Darkness did not know what Lin Xuan was up to, so it answered obediently. This answer allowed it to avoid the tragic fate of being hunted.
To be honest, Lin Xuan was still suspicious of her actions. After all, he could not read a person’s mind, and he could not understand why the God of Darkness would choose to side with him. Thus, he asked directly, “Then why did you choose to side with me?”
He couldn’t be that charming, could he?
“Naturally, it’s to save myself!
“The covenant of gods was originally powerful. Even if we can’t defeat the army led by the Human Emperor, we can still defend the covenant of gods and make you return without any achievements.
“But after King Ri led the army to battle and died, the other gods were all caught in one fell swoop. The strength of the covenant of gods plummeted, and if it could be restored with ten or twenty years of cultivation, it might be possible to restore its former strength. However, if you keep pressing on, the covenant of gods will no longer have that chance. Defeat will be the only outcome.
“As for me, I’ve been a totem god for hundreds of years. I’m used to the convenience of being a god. I’m afraid I can’t adapt to the life of a wild beast. So, I’m here to try to become the sacred beast of the Xia Dynasty.”
The God of Darkness explained slowly, and its reasoning it provided was very convincing. However, the more it explained, the more cautious Lin Xuan became. It was not that he was suspicious of the other party, but… Alright, he was.
Lin Xuan sat on his high seat, one hand on the armrest of his chair, slowly tapping it. He had already made a decision in his heart.
“Go back to the covenant of all gods now and calm the rest of the gods down. Figure out the alignment of all the gods. We must win over a group of the gods of the eastern barren, kill a group, and divide a group. The Xia Dynasty doesn’t need so many country-protecting beasts.”
Lin Xuan suddenly lowered his head and looked at the God of Darkness seriously. “The more sacred beasts there are, the less power of faith you’ll get. I’m sure you know what to do in this situation.”
Lin Xuan’s voice was like a devil’s voice that could lure people into the abyss, as if he wanted to bring the bunny-eared lady into the abyss of eternal damnation.
“I… I understand.”
The bunny-eared lady was inexplicably afraid when she spoke. Under Lin Xuan’s signal, she left the palace and returned to the covenant of gods.
Lin Xuan squinted his eyes and looked at the covenant of gods with a faint smile. He needed a complete covenant of gods, but he did not care about the gods of the eastern barren at all. It did not matter whether they lived or died…
Lin Xuan’s words to the God of Darkness were also a trap. He wanted to see if this God that was praised by so many gods was truly kind, or if she was just being hypocritical.
If she was, he might just keep her alive.
